Regional Council Hevel Yavne (Yavne Region) is named after the
old town of Yavne (see also: Gan Yavne) and was established in 1950.
It is situated in the south shore plain and got 3,600 inh. in 6
settlements and 2,000 pupils in the many education institutes in
this area. The Regional Council reports that it has no large
flags [for hoisting] but only a desk flag. However the design of
the desk flag as a emblem on national background brought me to
draw a putative flag. Source: letter from Mr. E. Greenwald, Regional Council
Clerk and treasurer; desk flag.Dov Gutterman, 25 August 2001

The municipal emblem was published in the official gazette (Rashumot),
YP 690, 30 July 1959.

Washington), Kerem BeYavne and Neve Herzog.
